Review on πŸ”’ Enhance Security with McGard 76029 Premium Pickup Truck Tailgate Lock in Black by Justin Hines

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Suitable for Ford Ranger notchback. Nice but too simple design.

I got this for my 2001 Ford Ranger Stepside. Since the tailgate is narrower than a regular Ford Ranger, I figured why not. I also got a pop and a lock for the tailgate for further insurance. It's NOTHING more than a goddamn screw/worm clamp. In fact, you're better off just buying a $2 worm clamp. If someone wants your back door, they get it. At best, this deters thieves who just want to break out and steal someone's back door. If the thieves have any tools, they will break it in 30 seconds. just like a normal worm clamp. It's only good because it has a plastic screen and a special lock, but it's under $20. Sorry, that's just not right. If I had known what it was actually made of before buying it, I would have agreed to my suggestion above. It gets the job done, but please don't expect anyone to fail at it. On a safety scale of 1 to 10, this would be a 2, meaning he's very easy to beat.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Some faults
